Comet 2013 X1 Panstarrs. for 28 June 2016.
I rotated the camera to get more of the dust tail, there's at least 1.5 degrees, probably more.

Cheers,

Justin.

I was imaging this comet at the start of June. Is the comet brighter now than it was then? It has been a couple of weeks since I have had a clear night so I cant see :(

Hi Luke,

X1 is around magnitude 7, so its faded slightly from the start of June. Hope you get a chance over the next week.

Cheers,

Justin.
